Business crime, a perpetual issue across the globe, includes embezzlement, money laundering, fraud, and more. Business crime is also associated with cybercrime, which has become a danger to for-profit businesses, not-for-profit businesses, and society. Business crimes fall into two categories: internal and external crimes. Internal crimes are committed by those within a company. External crimes, such as robbery, are committed by individuals outside a company. It is important for business owners to know what internal controls, such as having trained accountants, can help them avoid crime. The use of preventative measures, such as employee drug testing and background checks are also helpful. Due to increases in cybercrime and business crime, more security procedures have been put in place to help minimize threats. It is crucial for businesses and consumers to be aware of online threats and how to spot suspicious activity.
